Full Moon

Chapter 36: Talk

Jimin's POV

I stirred a little from my slumber when I felt my hair being stroked softly. I moaned and hugged Jungkook's unconscious body tighter, digging my face onto his chest as I heaved a breath, smelling his musky scent that lulled me more to sleep.

How I wish Jungkook was awake to cuddle with me. Every morning would be perfect waking up next to him and seeing his face first thing when I wake up.

Wanting to be glued to him as much as possible and have his scent all over me, I moved my leg and wrapped it around his waist. The strokes in my hair continued, gentle fingers brushing through my blonde locks.

"You sure love to cuddle, kitten." said a low husky voice. I mumbled and buried my face even more in his chest, loving the feeling of strong arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer. I felt a kiss planted on my head followed by a deep chuckle.

It was only then that I registered Jungkook's voice and his gentle strokes that made me want to never wake up. My eyes blew wide open as I moved away, looking up only to meet with the familiar pair of black eyes that I yearned for so long. My mouth hangs open as tears slightly blurred my vision.

"J-jungkook. . ." I muttered his name. He was smiling widely while looking at me lovingly and longingly. My mouth quivered as I looked at him as if I haven't seen him for an eternity. Tears threatened to fall down my face and I didn't dare stop them as I couldn't contain my overflowing emotions. I threw myself on him and hugged him as if he was going to disappear at any moment.

"Sorry, I was gone too long." He apologized. I buried my face in his neck and cried, stifling the sobs that wanted to get out of my mouth. His arm found its way around my waist, pulling me to him, making me feel complete again.

He kissed the side of my head and buried his face in the crook of my neck, feeling him breathe in deeply as if inhaling my scent for the first time.

Jungkook is the missing puzzle piece that completes me. I don't know how to function properly without him. He gave me all his love that I couldn't even remember what it feels like to live without that love.

"I miss you so much, Jimin." he whispered beside my ear. As much as I wanted time to freeze at this moment and have him in my arms forever, there's still a mess of questions and puzzles that hinders me from having him completely.

I pulled myself from him and wiped my tears away, putting on my serious face. His smile didn't fade as if he knew what was coming. He was calm and when he looked at me, I saw remorse. 

"You were gone for a long time. Do you even know how much I miss you? This," I took his hand and placed his palm on my chest, letting him feel my racing heartbeats. "Was slowly dying because I couldn't see even a glimpse of you. It was hurting for so long. . ." I trailed and sniffed. His smile faded slowly as he moved and sat us up, holding my waist as I sat on his lap. I was about to pull myself away but my longing for him made me do the opposite.

He cupped my cheeks, wiping my tears away using the pad of his thumb. He lifted my face and made me look at him. I probably look like a mess now with all the tears and the redness of my nose and eyes. But despite that, he still looks at me with the same intensity of love and longing.

"I'm sorry, Jimin. Trust me, I never left you. I was always there for and with you. . . just. . . just not in the form you like, n-not in the form that'll remind you of me." His voice shaking. He is scared. "I'm sorry, hyung. . . will you be able to forgive me?"

I have already forgiven him after thinking things through. I am still left with hundreds of pieces of questions left unanswered. I don't know anything about his wolf so I thought more about his actions and the way he acted when he was with us, with me. I badly wanted to reach the conclusion, but I could only guess and assume some things. I needed him to tame the crashing waves of confusion inside my head.
